    Thanks for this. I saw them when I worked at both the Castaways Wreck Bar and the Swinger Lounge (at the Marco Polo hotel) in N Miami Beach. They put on some great shows. So many great groups came through there. Big names like Lou Rawls, Barry White, Gladys Knight and the Pips, BB King, The Carpenters; every weekend was a new jam. But for pure partying and just plain fun, no one beat this group. This video absolutely captured the experience. Funny thing, looking back now I feel a sense of awe at how great all the music was, but at the time it was just normal. We also were blessed to have the Dinner Key auditorium, Pirates World and the Hollywood Sportatorium where the best rock groups (Doors, Led Zepplin, Creedence Clearwater, Joe Cocker, Allman Brothers and on and on) appeared. What a great time for musical creativity - freely expressed. I am grateful for all the memories.

This video is from one of the tv shows called Don Kirshners Rock Concert. We had Midnight Special, Soul Train, American Bandstand. Aired on the weekends and almost all live music and comedy acts. Loved it!!!
